Paul, I guess you are right. I was just reading the revision of the European species of Hilara flavipes group by Chvala in Studia dipterologica 4(1997) heft 2 pg 463-472. It is important to buy the new key of Hilara by Chvala, since Collin`s work is a bit outdated. H. cingulata is a syn of H. flavipes. It is a pity it is not possible to look at the fly under the microscope, but I think you will come out at H. albiventris.
